BLACK VOICES An archive of stories on African-American themes For the Relief of Unbearable U r g e s BY NATHAN ENGLANDER ALFRED A. KNOPF FICTION 191 PAGES BY JOHN PERRY T he Jews in Nathan Englander's short stories are mainly displaced persons. Some of them are the refugees one would expect to find in tales of the Soviet Union, the Holocaust and present-day Brooklyn. But most suffer a more intimate exile, dislodged from their own lives by causes mundane or miraculous hair loss, manic depression, reincarnation. Location and dislocation are central to Englander's brilliant debut collection, "For the Relief of Unbearable Urges." Despite their impressive range of settings and situations, the nine stories all fall within the terrain of Orthodox and Hasidic life. Englander never lets his treatment of this world become self-conscious or sound like travel writing; the Yiddish and Hebrew studding his pages are simply part of the landscape.

A conversation with Nathan Englander, the author of The Atlantic 's March short story March 3, 1999 Nathan Englander N athan Englander's first collection of stories, For the Relief of Unbearable Urges, will be published next month by Alfred A. Knopf, in what Publisher's Weekly has called "one of the most bruited debuts of the year" a reference to the rumors of the very large advance paid to Englander. But, PW continued, "such brouhaha shouldn't cloud the achievement of these unpretentious and powerful stories." The characterization is apt, as Englander's story in the March Atlantic "The Gilgul of Park Avenue" ) reveals. "Gilgul" is a representative example of Englander's talent for storytelling, his lively sense of humor, and his profound connection to his Jewish heritage. Englander, twenty-nine, has an MFA in creative writing from the University of Iowa, and has recently moved from the United States to Jerusalem, where, thanks to his book advance, he has installed himself in a bright, tidy apartment perched on a hill overlooking the Israel Supreme Court and the Knesset. He recently spoke to The Atlantic 's Lucie Prinz, who was the first reader at the magazine to come across his work.

Nathan Englander Verlost van vleselijke verlangens Vertaald uit het Amerikaans door Nicolette Hoekmeijer Nathan Englander (1970) is geboren in New York en woont momenteel in Jeruzalem. Zijn verhalenbundel Verlost van vleselijke verlangens Een Jeruzalemse chassied wiens vrouw hem de echtelijke sponde weigert, krijgt van zijn rabbi toestemming om in Tel Aviv een prostituee te bezoeken. Bij terugkomst in Jeruzalem blijkt hij een druiper te hebben opgelopen. Een groep Poolse joden op weg naar een concentratiekamp, mengt zich tijdens de treinreis ongezien onder een groep circusartiesten, en doet zich voor als acrobaten. Ze treden op in een theater voor een groot publiek, dat - overduidelijk - uit Duitsers bestaat, waaronder Hitler. Een groep van 26 Jiddische schrijvers wordt tijdens het Stalin-regime gearresteerd. Hun executie wordt vastgelegd door een jood die nog nooit een boek heeft gepubliceerd. Een witbebaarde chassied wordt ontslagen als freelance joodse kerstman. Een waspy zakenman wordt zich tijdens een taxirit bewust van zijn joodse wortels. Een verwarde man ontdekt dat de rabbijn die hem moet adviseren, zelf in de problemen zit. En in het tragische slotverhaal beschrijft Englander Jeruzalem in de uren na een bomexplosie.

Kitérõk és betérõk Nathan Englander novellái Nathan Englander Elviselhetetlen gerjedelmek enyhítésére (For the Relief of Unbearable Urges) címû kötetéért 350 ezer dollár elõleget kapott a rangos Alfred A. Knopf kiadótól. Egy 29 éves, eddig jószerivel ismeretlen író elsõ novelláskötetéért ez hallatlanul magas összeg. Azt hiszem, sokan megértették, hogy az élet vagy szürkébb, vagy változatosabb, mint ahogy én képzelem. Én nem jöttem rá, hogy a szabályok hajlíthatók. Márpedig egy osztályteremben, ahol az emberek nincsenek felkészülve a kérdésekre, ezek a dolgok lázadásként hatnak.” (Ez a fekete-fehér látásmód most sem áll tõle távol, amint egyik-másik novellájából kitûnik.) Englander tehát fellázadt: társaival ellentétben, akik Izraelbe mentek tanulni, és többségükben fekete kalapos ultraortodoxként tértek vissza, õ irodalmat és judaisztikát tanult a SUNY Binghamton egyetemen, és mire végzett, elhagyta a vallást ( hazar ba se’elah – visszatért a kérdéshez, ahogy Izraelben tréfásan mondják a valláshoz visszatérõ analógiájára). A vele készült interjúkban láthatóan azon igyekszik, hogy csökkentse e lépés szenzációértékét: “

Per alleviare insopportabili impulsi Il newyorkese Nathan Englander, ora residente a Gerusalemme, ci appassiona alle sue storie yiddish, mistiche ed umoristiche insieme Indice della rubrica Cinema CyberNews Fumetti ... VIPs QUALI SONO GLI IMPULSI DI CUI CI PARLA QUESTO LIBRO? Si potrebbe tentare di rispondere per prima cosa a questa domanda. E ancora, sono davvero insopportabili? Il titolo originale di questa raccolta di racconti recita "For the relief of unbereable urges", "urgenze" dunque, come quella di narrare forse, ecco una possibile risposta. Ci si appassiona alle storie che racconta questo giovane autore cresciuto a New York e ora residente a Gerusalemme, influenzato dalla tradizione letteraria yiddish e con echi neanche troppo nascosti ai grandi maestri delle "short story" come Gogol o, per altri versi, Cechov e Tolstoj. Partire da Kafka, come ambientazione, per arrivare a Kafka, nel senso della "trasformazione", della "metamorfosi". Il giovane Nathan Englander, che ha esordito sul "New Yorker" e su "Story", si affida spesso nei suoi racconti alla figura del Rabbi, come fondamentale chiarificatore dei dubbi insoluti di vita. E, come tradizione ebraica vuole, tenta con le sue scritture di dare voce a certi impulsi dell'anima e di alleviarli con parole che spaziano (buon per noi), dallo humour stile Allen, al misticismo, allo spirito di un passato che riemerge con forza e passione.

For the Relief of Unbearable Urges Nathan Englander Short stories; the author is an American Jew and most of the stories are about Orthodox Jews. Some set in Jerusalem, some in New York, some at the time of the Holocaust and some modern. A window into a closed world. The author writes well, good description of the circumscribed lives of Orthodox Jewish women. Some of the stories are very sad. Interesting stories. Recommended. Doreen 23/7/00 A book of short stories by the (apparently, going by his picture) young author, who writes with the understanding and knowledge of the world of a 60-year old. The stories, all very powerful, are mostly about orthodox Jews; they have an undercurrent of sadness, and real humour. Really well written and highly recommended.

Tidligere anbefalinger Til lindring af utålelige drifter af Nathan Englander anbefalet af bibliotekar Inge-Lise Westh Hansen, Århus Kommunes Biblioteker Lån bogen på Selvom man sædvanligvis ikke lige er til noveller, vil alene titlen på denne samling pirre ens nysgerrighed! Nathan Englander er amerikansk født jøde; ortodokst opdraget og opvokset i New York, men nu bosiddende i Jerusalem. Geografisk og historisk spreder fortællingerne sig fra Stalintidens Sovjetunionen og Polen under 2. verdenskrig til nutidens New York og Jerusalem. Tematisk handler de om ortodokse jøders liv i et moderne samfund med de sammenbrud det forårsager, og de bizarre situationer de som oftest lidt "meschigge" (småskøre) personer havner i. De to indledende og meget barske noveller foregår i "det gamle land": I "Den syv og tyvende mand" er 26 russisk-jødiske forfattere havnet på Stalins liste over antisovjettisk virksomhed. En 27'ende er havnet på listen ved en fejltagelse. Han har aldrig skrevet et ord, men i fængslet bliver han så inspireret af forfatterne, at han ind imellem forhør og tortur "skriver" det sidste afsnit i deres livs historie. - I "Tumlingerne" kommer en lille flok hassidiske jøder fra Chelms Ghetto ved skæbnens ironi på et forkert tog. Da de skal sendes til Auschwitz, havner de i stedet for i et andet ventende tog fyldt med artister der er på vej til en stor festforestilling. De stakkels jøder prøver nu i al hast at indøve nogle numre og alligevel overholde de mest basale ortodokse regler. Deres overlevelsesstrategi bliver til en forfærdelig selvparodi.

For the Relief of Unbearable Urges - Stories by Nathan Englander (ISBN 0375404929) The stories in For the Relief of Unbearable Urges are powerfully inventive and often haunting, steeped in the weight of Jewish history and in the customs of Orthodox life. But it is in the largeness of their spirit a spirit that finds in doubt a doorway to faith, that sees in despair a chance for the heart to deepenand in the wisdom that so prodigiously transcends the author's twenty-eight years, that these stories are truly remarkable. Nathan Englander envisions a group of Polish Jews herded toward a train bound for Auschwitz and in a deft imaginative twist turns them into acrobats tumbling out of harm's way; he takes an elderly wigmaker and makes her, for a single moment, beautiful. Again and again, Englander does what feels impossible: he finds, wherever he looks, a province beyond death's dominion. Jump to Free Chapter Bulletin Board Changed Your Mind About This Page?
